Chapter 276 Hannes's Speculation
The landing point of the Meteorite Fleet was not far from here, and the battle situation here was easily discovered on the scanner.
However, the battleship's energy attack could not accurately control the aftermath and could easily cause additional casualties, so Li Yu simply landed the Thunder.
Under his precise control, there was no aftermath spreading.
"Yes...it's me." Li Yu nodded and admitted his identity. The captain in front of him became even more excited.
The team members nearby began to whisper and discuss in low voices.
"This person looks so familiar..."
"Idiot, he is the one the captain stuck to the head of the bed..."
"Li Yu... the recipient of the Gold Cross Medal, the Honorary Baron of Guixing, and a person who survived the Ordos '5A Melee' safely."
"It is said that he is now an A-level life form. He is so young, even younger than the captain. I am so envious..."
“…”
With Li Yu's hearing ability, he could naturally hear the conversations around him clearly. His face couldn't help but become a little strange, as it seemed that he had quite a lot of "legendary experiences".
Only the general outlines of the Ordos incident were made public, and many people did not know that Li Yu went there as bait.
However, within the military, this matter was widely circulated, after all, the Meteorite Fleet's performance was too astonishing.
At the same time, the remnants of the Meteorite Fleet also insulted the commander of the patrol fleet.
As a result, the entire patrol fleet sequence is not very fond of the Meteorite Fleet.
"Are you here to provide support?"
The captain of the ship-destroying team had to repeat such an obvious question, which was enough to show that he was a little excited.
"Captain, what's wrong? Do we need to ask this question again?" a team member asked puzzledly.
"You saw your idol, isn't that what you usually do when you lick the mermaid princess on the Internet..." The burly man with a scar on his face winked at his smaller teammate and whispered:
"I heard that Baron Li Yu was the captain of the mermaid princess's outer security team, and the two of them were having an affair. He even spent the night on the Ocean Rose..."
"Impossible!" The teammate said firmly: "The mermaid princess is a symbol of purity!"
"Then go up and ask the baron what the mermaid princess tastes like?"
"roll!"
Li Yu was a little confused after hearing the conversation. Where did these rumors come from? Just because I stayed overnight on the Ocean Rose, they said that I had an affair with the Mermaid Princess?
"Shut up!" The captain couldn't stand it anymore, turned around and shouted, and the team members who were whispering immediately shut up and dared not speak again. His authority was still very high.
"Please...Excuse me...Are you the holy envoy sent by Tanxia?" An old man wearing tattered religious clothes walked out tremblingly from the uneasy crowd and asked expectantly.
"Tanxia?" Li Yu was a little confused, and the captain took the initiative to explain: "Tanxia is the creator god in Hengfeng's local mythology..."
"Oh..." Li Yu suddenly realized, looked at the Hengfeng citizens around him with hope in their eyes, and shook his head firmly: "I don't know him well."
Heavy sighs came one after another, and the expressions on these people's faces dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This kind of frontier galaxy has a very weak sense of ruling the returning star and is seriously lacking in interstellarization. It is also the favorite place for evil gods and interstellar terrorists.
The ship-destroying squad was not surprised by this and did not take it too seriously.
The captain calls himself Kurami. He is slightly older than Li Yu and is a C-level genetically evolved being, integrating the genetic chains of giant soldier ants, wind mantises, armored lions and ground dragons.
There are no element-controlling gene chains. All of them are extremely cost-effective gene chains that can bring all-round enhancements in strength, defense, and speed.
"Where is the resistance base? Why can't I contact the 14th Patrol Fleet?" Li Yu asked. When they landed near the Hengfeng Galaxy, they started to contact the 14th Patrol Fleet, but they couldn't get through.
Kurami explained: "Long-distance communication was blocked by the evil god, so we changed the communication method and built an internal communication network on Fengchen Star. We can only communicate through specific communication channels."
Li Yu nodded and said: "In that case, take me to the resistance base..."
"Okay, but we still need to take these survivors away..." Kurami looked around and asked cautiously, "You didn't come here alone..."
"Of course not..." Li Yu shook his head and began to contact the hunter to let him land from outer space.
Boom boom
The wind pressure came suddenly, blowing up the dust and causing sand and rocks to fly.
Shadows appeared on the ground and then expanded rapidly.
Dozens of warships gradually descended, their huge bodies blocking out the sky and the sun, which was extremely spectacular. However, the members of the ship-destroying team were originally members of the cruising fleet, so they would naturally not be shocked by such things.
"It's the Meteorite Fleet!" one team member shouted, instantly recognizing the logo on the side of the battleship.
"It's actually the Meteorite Fleet..."
The team members had different expressions and looked at each other, as if they wanted to say something but didn't.
Kurami's face was also a little hesitant: "You brought... the Meteor Fleet?"
"Yeah...what's wrong?" Li Yu sensed a strange atmosphere and asked.
"Nothing... nothing..." Kurami shook her head without explaining. Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and did not ask any further questions.
"Destroy the bodies and evacuate quickly. If we wait too long, we might attract attacks from those watching." Kurami shouted, and called on the team members to start burning large pieces of corpses with thermal flames, and then began to evacuate.
The survivors boarded the fleet in an orderly manner and left quickly. Li Yu also secretly controlled a team member through the [Seed of Huo Yin] and learned why this group of people had such a strange attitude towards the Meteorite Fleet.
Because the deputy commanders of the Meteorite Fleet forced the commander of the Sixth Cruise Fleet, Thomas, to apologize, Thomas publicized it within the Cruise Fleet.
The conflict between the patrol fleet and the title fleet has been accumulating for many years. They already disliked each other, and this has added fuel to the fire.
However, the Meteorite Fleet had made great achievements in the Battle of Ordos, and their commander-in-chief had died, so the Cruise Fleet was unable to launch an attack and could only suffer in silence.
However, the Meteorite Fleet was blacklisted within the patrol fleet and was very unwelcome.
This matter was essentially caused by Li Yu, and he was speechless about it.
"The quantum communication channel has been disrupted. We have lost regular contact with Guixing." The hunter whispered. He was not surprised by this.
"This is a common method used by evil gods. They use their divine power to interfere with long-distance communications. If you want to communicate, you can only go to outer space."
Li Yu already knew about this through Kurami, so he was not surprised and expressed his understanding.
According to Kurami's navigation, the Meteor Fleet began to move towards the resistance base.
On the way, Thomas gave Li Yu a general introduction to the current situation.
Hengyuan Star has completely fallen, and Fengchen Star will soon fall. The methods used by this group of evil god believers are swift, accurate and ruthless. They infect ordinary people and turn corpses into evil... It seems that this process has been done countless times.
"...The 14th Patrol Fleet originally landed on Hengyuan Star and wanted to solve the problem directly, but was ambushed, resulting in heavy casualties. They had no choice but to retreat to Fengchen Star... requesting support..."
Kurami clenched her fists, and there was some sadness in her words.
Each patrol fleet has its own patrol area, and the Fourteenth Patrol Fleet is responsible for the large star area including the Hengfeng Galaxy.
The rest of the patrol fleets have their own territories to patrol, so it is difficult for them to come to support, so they can only transfer personnel from the central galaxy.
According to Kurami's private revelation, they saved these ordinary people not just for protection, Rohan can transform flesh and blood into various monsters.
Even dead bodies were no exception, so they had to destroy the bodies when they just evacuated.
And by saving these people, we are weakening the enemy.
…
The temporary headquarters base is located deep underground. It was originally an air-raid shelter, but was built through rapid expansion.
Various alloy cables crisscrossed, and the simple caves were filled with numb-looking survivors. It was enough to accommodate tens of millions of people. There were dozens of underground air-raid shelters like this in the entire Fengchen Star.
The commander of the 14th Patrol Fleet, Hannes Kirke, was rubbing his brow, with a white cloth bandaged on his right arm.
The scarlet-black blood continued to drip into the basin on the metal floor, emitting a fishy smell.
"The message requesting support has been sent for ten days, why hasn't the support arrived yet?" Opposite him was Ted, the governor of the Hengfeng Galaxy. He looked very young, but he was actually in his forties.
However, among the consuls, he is still considered young.
Hannes's face looked slightly pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, his eyes were sunken, his lower eyelids were slightly turned outward, and there were purple-red bloodshot veins all over, as if he was very tired.
This is an extremely rare occurrence for an A-level life form.
"Don't worry... ahem..." Hannes was interrupted by Ted before he could finish his words. He looked anxious:
"How can I not be anxious? According to the information you gave me, the blood sacrifice will begin soon, and we will all die here!"
Hannes looked unhappy and was about to speak when the smart terminal on his arm vibrated slightly. He raised his head and glanced at it, and couldn't help but reveal a slight joy.
"Reinforcements are coming..." But as soon as he finished speaking, Hannes's face suddenly darkened again.
"Reinforcements are coming, that's great!" Ted clenched his fists and looked very excited.
"Shut up!" Hannes suddenly shouted coldly, leaving Governor Ted stunned in place, not knowing what was going on.
Facing the furious Hannes, Governor Ted subconsciously wanted to refute, but suddenly he remembered the other party's god-like performance at the beginning, and suddenly felt a little disappointed.
"The support is from the Meteorite Fleet!" Hannes gritted his teeth.
"Meteor Fleet? Since it's a title fleet..." Governor Ted said subconsciously.
It is a consensus that the title fleet is far stronger than the cruising fleet.
"Idiot!" Hannes couldn't help but curse: "Didn't you pay attention to the Ordos incident a while ago?"
"The Meteorite Fleet has been crippled, and the remaining ones are just a bunch of minions. How can they possibly be able to provide support?"
Even if there is a grudge against the Meteorite Fleet, there is nothing that cannot be let go when it comes to life and death.
But the key point is that the Meteorite Fleet is in trouble. The commander died, the main ship exploded, and the fleet was reduced to one-fifth of its size.
What a shit strength!
"The Odos incident?" Ted was a little stunned. When the Odos incident began, the evil god had already begun to invade the Hengfeng galaxy. He was so busy that he didn't pay much attention to it.
However, after hearing what Hannes said, he realized that this fleet seemed to be crippled.
"Is it possible that the Meteorite Fleet has completed its reorganization?" He held on to the last glimmer of hope.
"Reorganization?" Hannes sneered: "The Ordos incident happened less than a month ago. Even if it is fully reorganized, how much combat power do you think it will have?"
"Which ship hasn't been through a thousand trials and tribulations? Even if it's reassembled, is it any different from being crippled?"
"What's more, my subordinates told me that they have not reorganized at all."
"Then...why would the top management send them over for support?" Ted found it hard to believe. Could it be that Guixing had given up on them?
"Because... this commander..." Hannes looked as if he saw through everything, and the smart terminal projected a virtual projection of Li Yu.
"This person... looks familiar..." Governor Ted stared at Li Yu. After a moment, he remembered: "...Is it Li Yu, the winner of the Gold Cross?"
Hannes: “…”
You don't know about the Ordos incident, but Li Yu, you know it clearly.
After all, when the Golden Cross Medal was awarded, nothing happened in the Hengfeng Galaxy, so he had plenty of free time.
"Yes, it's him..." He had a blank expression on his face. As the commander of the patrol fleet, he knew more inside information.
For example, Vimala disliked Li Yu very much. In the last Ordos incident, he was used as bait, but who knew that this guy was not dead.
Maybe... this time... he is also sent to die, but more people need to be buried with him.
Ted slumped in his chair, his eyes dull. He still had a bright future ahead of him, and even had the chance to enter the council hall of the Return Star Conquest Power.
However, now it seems that all is lost.
Hannes snorted inwardly. As an A-class life form and the commander-in-chief of the patrol fleet, he was not incapable of escaping.
However, he could not leave until the situation completely collapsed, otherwise he would be court-martialed.
"Is he... he... an A-level life form?!" Governor Ted looked up suddenly and said excitedly, as if he suddenly remembered something.
Hannes nodded indifferently: "Yes... After he came back from Ordos, he became an A-level life form through military channels."
"You are all A-level life forms. If you work together, is there a chance..." He looked hopeful.
Hannes poured cold water on him: "He has only just become an A-level life form, and he doesn't have much combat power at all. Even if those huge numbers of transformed blood beasts just stand there and let him kill them, they can still wear him down to death."
"He... is here to die..."
The light in Governor Ted's eyes dimmed completely, and he slumped in his chair as if all the bones in his body had been pulled out.
Hannes sat on the chair, his right arm trembling slightly. When he said that Li Yu was not strong enough, he seemed to have forgotten that he was also seriously injured.
